LIVING SPACES

Room by Room Organizing

Room by Room Organizing

Overwhelmed by the clutter that seems to be taking over every room of your home? Lots of ideas for better organization and not enough time to make it happen? Together, we will develop a game plan and tackle one room at a time so that your space only contains the items you use, love and need. We’ll help you transform your family living spaces by setting up proper storage and organization systems that will simplify everyday life, reduce stress, and make cleaning up easier!

Kitchens & Pantries

Kitchens & Pantries

Cleanse your kitchen! Working together, we will purge or relocate any unnecessary items, dispose of expired foods and clean all areas (e.g. cupboards, drawers, refrigerator). To maximize space, we will rearrange your kitchen based on point of use and set up “action centres”. Using visual systems will make meal planning easier and save you money.

Bedrooms & Bathrooms

Bedrooms & Bathrooms

Bedrooms have the potential to be havens of rest and relaxation where the stresses of life melt away. Many bedrooms also have a tendency to suffer from clothing clutter and inadequate or poorly managed storage. If your ‘sanctuary’ is a source of frustration, rather than relaxation, we can help! We’ll work with you to clear surfaces, sort drawers/closets and create efficient storage spaces. Then, all you will have to do is put your feet up and enjoy! We can also help to reclaim “junk rooms” and declutter “hot spots” under bathroom sinks.

STORAGE SPACES

Entrances & Mudrooms

Entrances & Mudrooms

Are you unable to find what you need as you’re trying to get out the door? Does a pile of shoes, bags, and coats greet your guests when they enter your home? High traffic areas are at high risk of becoming cluttered and chaotic. We can help you take charge of entrances and mudrooms with a customized plan for tackling the mess and putting effective storage solutions in place. Welcome your guests and show off your home with a great first impression!

Walk-In Closets & Wardrobes

Walk-In Closets & Wardrobes

Sorting through clothes and accessories is an adventure that can be lots of fun! In the Spring and Fall, we will help you to do a seasonal rotation. Generally, if you haven’t worn something during a season, it needs to find a new home. By handling one item at a time, we can help to identify styles that may be outdated or worn.

Laundry Rooms & Linen Closets

Laundry Rooms & Linen Closets

Are piles of clothing making it difficult to access your washer and dryer? No place to fold or hang clothes? Designing a user-friendly laundry room with all supplies on hand and space to sort laundry will relieve frustration and could make this chore enjoyable! If you have children, we can provide techniques to manage a large volume of clothing. We will teach you folding methods to save you time and space. To make room for your fresh linens, we’ll help you to sort towels, table cloths and bedding.

Basements & Garages

Basements & Garages

What’s lurking in your basement, garage or workshop? If it has become a dumping ground, we can uncover those long-lost “treasures”. We will help you to quickly identify the “keepers”, define “zones” and containerize using clearly labelled shelving & bins. Our junk removal crew will remove/relocate large pieces and ensure proper distribution of items for donation or disposal.

FAMILY LIFE & HOBBIES

Children’s Areas

Children’s Areas

We know keeping children’s areas tidy and contained can pose a challenge for any family. Since organization is a skill and can be learned, children can be taught how to organize their bedrooms and play areas. With encouragement, children are often eager to donate their unwanted items, helping to minimize clutter. Whether a bedroom, playroom or crafting space, we have solutions to keep children’s areas organized and make clean-up time a breeze!

Household Management & Paperwork

Household Management & Paperwork

Struggling to manage a whirlwind of schedules, forms and tasks? From juggling children’s extracurricular activities with meal planning, laundry, home maintenance and more – family life can be chaotic. Let’s simplify it together. Is paperwork taking over your space and home office? Too busy to open the mail? Misplacing important documents? Together we can develop a simple, customized system to manage your family’s incoming papers including bills, receipts, medical documents and school papers. You’ll gain tools to protect vital documents, stay organized, and prepare effortlessly for tax time.

Hobbies & Crafting

Hobbies & Crafting

Is your hobby taking over your home? Many hobbies come with their own equipment, supplies, and storage issues. Whether in a sewing room, crafting area, art studio or other work space, we can help sort all the bits and pieces using customized storage solutions. You will love having an inspirational space where you can easily find what you need. If your children leave a trail of craft supplies throughout the house, we have kid-friendly storage solutions too!

Don’t let toys, paperwork and crafts rule your spaces! Contact us to restore order in your home!

Our Reviews

“In a few days, we accomplished what would have taken me months to do on my own. I can find everything in seconds – what a liberating feeling! I have a big chunk of my life back to do things with my family and for myself. The organizers are worth their weight in gold…times 10!! Thank you for your great ideas, professionalism and guidance. I could not have done it without you.”

Trisha, Grimsby

“The new kitchen layout is working out great. We love the new changes and are so happy you came because we would have never set it up the way you did it. I love where the oils are and I love the spice cupboard and bins for the kids’ cups and plates. Thank-you! …You know we will call you again in the future if we need your expertise.”

Raphaela, Ancaster

“I used Organized Solutions twice: for organizing/filing paperwork and for decluttering the kids’ playroom. I was overwhelmed and didn’t know where to start. Elaine made tackling the mountains of paperwork easy and created a user-friendly system for my files. Everything we approached went from scary to easy.”
